../_images/ra_interpolate_points.png

This tool allows you to predict values at new locations based on measurements from a collection of points. The tool takes point data with values at each point and returns a raster of predicted values:

  • An air quality management district has sensors that measure pollution levels. Interpolate Points can be used to predict pollution levels at locations that don’t have sensors, such as locations with at-risk populations- schools or hospitals, for example.

  • Predict heavy metal concentrations in crops based on samples taken from individual plants.

  • Predict soil nutrient levels (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and so on) and other indicators (such as electrical conductivity) in order to study their relationships to crop yield and prescribe precise amounts of fertilizer for each location in the field.

  • Meteorological applications include prediction of temperatures, rainfall, and associated variables (such as acid rain).

Parameter

Description

input_point_features

Required point layer containing locations with known values The point layer that contains the points where the values have been measured.

interpolate_field

Required string - field to interpolate. Choose the field whose values you wish to interpolate. The field must be numeric.

Example:

“myField”

optimize_for

Optional string. Choose your preference for speed versus accuracy. More accurate predictions take longer to calculate.

This parameter alters the default values of several other parameters of Interpolate Points in order to optimize speed of calculation, accuracy of results, or a balance of the two.

By default, the tool will optimize for balance.

One of the following: [‘SPEED’, ‘BALANCE’, ‘ACCURACY’]

  • SPEED is optimized for performance.

  • BALANCE is performed with a balance between performance and accuracy. This is the default.

  • ACCURACY is optimized towards achieving the most accurate result, at the expense of some performance..

Example:

“ACCURACY”

transform_data

Optional bool - Choose whether to transform your data to the normal distribution.

Interpolation is most accurate for data that follows a normal (bell-shaped) distribution. If your data does not appear to be normally distributed, you should perform a transformation.

  • False means no transformation will be applied. This is suitable for data that is naturally normally distributed. This is the default.

  • True applies a suitable transformation for data that is not normally distributed.

size_of_local_models

Optional int - Size of local models Interpolate Points works by building local interpolation models that are mixed together to create the final prediction map. This parameter controls how many points will be contained in each local model. Smaller values will make results more local and can reveal small-scale effects, but it may introduce some instability in the calculations. Larger values will be more stable, but some local effects may be missed.

The value can range from 30 to 500, but typical values are between 50 and 200.

number_of_neighbors

Optional int - Number of Neighbors Predictions are calculated based on neighboring points. This parameter controls how many points will be used in the calculation. Using a larger number of neighbors will generally produce more accurate results, but the results take longer to calculate.

This value can range from 1 to 64, but typical values are between 5 and 15.

output_cell_size

Optional dict. Specify the cell size to use for the output raster.

Supported units: Meters | Kilometers | Feet | Miles

Example:

{“distance”:”60”,”units”:”Meters”}

output_prediction_error

Optional bool. Choose whether you want to create a raster of standard errors for the predicted values.

  • True specifies that standard error raster will be generated.

  • False specifies that it will not be generated

Standard errors are useful because they provide information about the reliability of the predicted values. A simple rule of thumb is that the true value will fall within two standard errors of the predicted value 95 percent of the time. For example, suppose a new location gets a predicted value of 50 with a standard error of 5. This means that this tool’s best guess is that the true value at that location is 50, but it reasonably could be as low as 40 or as high as 60. To calculate this range of reasonable values, multiply the standard error by 2, add this value to the predicted value to get the upper end of the range, and subtract it from the predicted value to get the lower end of the range.

output_name

Optional. If not provided, an Image Service is created by the method and used as the output raster.

You can pass in an existing Image Service Item from your GIS to use that instead.

Alternatively, you can pass in the name of the output Image Service that should be created by this method to be used as the output for the tool. A RuntimeError is raised if a service by that name already exists

Summarizes a raster based on areas (zones) defined by the first input layer (input_zone_layer).

Parameter

Description

input_zone_layer

Required layer - area layer to summarize a raster layer within defined boundaries.

The layer that defines the boundaries of the areas, or zones, that will be summarized.

The layer can be a raster or feature data. For rasters, the zones are defined by all locations in the input that

input_raster_layer_to_summarize

Required - raster layer to summarize.

The raster cells in this layer will be summarized by the areas (zones) that they fall within.

zone_field

Required string - field to define the boundaries. This is the attribute of the layer that will be used to define the boundaries of the areas. For example, suppose the first input layer defines the management unit boundaries, with attributes that define the region, the district, and the parcel ID of each unit. You also have a raster layer defining a biodiversity index for each location. With the field you select, you can decide to calculate the average biodiversity at local, district, or regional levels.

Default: “Value”

statistic_type

Optional string - statistic to calculate. You can calculate statistics of any numerical attribute of the points, lines, or areas within the input area layer.

statistic_type can be one of the following: [‘Mean’, ‘Majority’, ‘Maximum’, ‘Median’, ‘Minimum’, ‘Minority’, ‘Range’, ‘STD’, ‘SUM’, ‘Variety’, ‘Percentile’]

  • Mean: Calculates the average of all cells in the value raster that belongs to the same zone as the output cell. This is the default.

  • Majority: Determines the majority value of all cells in the value raster that belongs to the same zone as the output cell.

  • Maximum: Determines the largest value of all cells in the value raster that belongs to the same zone as the output cell.

  • Median: Finds the median value of all cells in the value raster that belongs to the same zone as the output cell.

  • Minimum: Finds the smallest value of all cells in the value raster that belongs to the same zone as the output cell.

  • Minority: Determines the minority value of all cells in the value raster that belongs to the same zone as the output cell.

  • Range: Finds the range of all cells in the value that belongs to the same zone as the output zone.

  • Sum: Adds the total value of all cells in the value raster that belongs to the same zone as the output cell.

  • STD: Finds the standard deviation of all cells in the value raster that belongs to the same zone as the output cell.

  • Variety: Finds the variety of all cells in the value raster that belong to the same zone as the output cell.

  • Percentile: Finds a percentile of all cells in the value raster that belong to the same zone as the output cell. The 90th percentile is calculated by default. You can specify other values (from 0 to 100) using the percentile_value parameter.

If the input_raster_layer_to_summarize is floating-point type, the zonal calculations for Majority, Median, Mean, and Variety cannot be computed.

ignore_missing_values

Optional bool, If you choose to ignore missing values, only the cells that have a value in the layer to be summarized will be used in determining the output value for that area. Otherwise, if there are missing values anywhere in an area, it is deemed that there is insufficient information to perform statistical calculations for all the cells in that zone, and that area will receive a null (NoData) value in the output.

output_name

Optional. If not provided, an Image Service is created by the method and used as the output raster. You can pass in an existing Image Service Item from your GIS to use that instead. Alternatively, you can pass in the name of the output Image Service that should be created by this method to be used as the output for the tool.

../_images/ra_calculate_density.png

Density analysis takes known quantities of some phenomenon and creates a density map by spreading these quantities across the map. You can use this function, for example, to show concentrations of lightning strikes or tornadoes, access to health care facilities, and population densities.

This function creates a density map from point or line features by spreading known quantities of some phenomenon (represented as attributes of the points or lines) across the map. The result is a layer of areas classified from least dense to most dense.

For point input, each point should represent the location of some event or incident, and the result layer represents a count of the incident per unit area. A larger density value in a new location means that there are more points near that location. In many cases, the result layer can be interpreted as a risk surface for future events. For example, if the input points represent locations of lightning strikes, the result layer can be interpreted as a risk surface for future lightning strikes.

For line input, the line density surface represents the total amount of line that is near each location. The units of the calculated density values are the length of line-per-unit area. For example, if the lines represent rivers, the result layer will represent the total length of rivers that are within the search radius. This result can be used to identify areas that are hospitable to grazing animals.

Other use cases of this tool include the following:

  • Creating crime density maps to help police departments properly allocate resources to high crime areas.

  • Calculating densities of hospitals within a county. The result layer will show areas with high and low accessibility to hospitals, and this information can be used to decide where new hospitals should be built.

  • Identifying areas that are at high risk of forest fires based on historical locations of forest fires.

  • Locating communities that are far from major highways in order to plan where new roads should be constructed.

Parameter

Description

input_point_or_line_features

Required feature layer - The input point or line layer that will be used to calculate the density layer.

count_field

Optional string - count field

Provide a field specifying the number of incidents at each location. For example, if you have points that represent cities, you can use a field representing the population of the city as the count field, and the resulting population density layer will calculate larger population densities near cities with larger populations.

If the default choice of None is used, then each location will be assumed to represent a single count.

Example:

“myCountField”

search_distance

Optional dict, Enter a distance specifying how far to search to find point or line features when calculating density values.

For example, if you provide a search distance of 10,000 meters, the density of any location in the output layer is calculated based on features that are within 10,000 meters of the location. Any location that does not have any incidents within 10,000 meters will receive a density value of zero. If no distance is provided, a default will be calculated that is based on the locations of the input features and the values in the count field (if a count field is provided).

Example:

{“distance”:”60”,”units”:”Meters”}

output_area_units

Optional string - Output area units Specify the output area unit. Density is count divided by area, and this parameter specifies the unit of the area in the density calculation. The available areal units are SQUARE_MILES and SQUARE_KILOMETERS.

../_images/ra_segment.png

Groups together adjacent pixels having similar spectral and spatial characteristics into segments, known as objects.

Parameter

Description

input_raster

Required ImageryLayer object

spectral_detail

Optional float. Default is 15.5. Set the level of importance given to the spectral differences of features in your imagery. Valid values range from 1.0 to 20.0. A high value is appropriate when you have features you want to classify separately but have somewhat similar spectral characteristics. Smaller values create spectrally smoother outputs.

For example, setting a higher spectral detail value for a forested scene, will preserve greater discrimination between the different tree species, resulting in more segments.

spatial_detail

Optional float. Default is 15. Set the level of importance given to the proximity between features in your imagery. Valid values range from 1 to 20. A high value is appropriate for a scene where your features of interest are small and clustered together. Smaller values create spatially smoother outputs.

For example, in an urban scene, you could classify an impervious surface using a smaller spatial detail, or you could classify buildings and roads as separate classes using a higher spatial detail.

minimum_segment_size_in_pixels

Optional float. Default is 20. Merge segments smaller than this size with their best fitting neighbor segment. This is related to the minimum mapping unit for a mapping project. Units are in pixels.

band_indexes

Optional List of integers. Default is [0,1,2] Define which 3 bands are used in segmentation. Choose the bands that visually discriminate your features of interest best.

remove_tiling_artifacts

Optional Bool. Default is False. If False, the tool will not run to remove tiling artifacts after segmentation. The result may seem blocky at some tiling boundaries.

output_name

Optional String. If specified, an Imagery Layer of given name is created. Else, an Image Service is created by the method and used as the output raster. You can pass in an existing Image Service Item from your GIS to use that instead. Alternatively, you can pass in the name of the output Image Service that should be created by this method to be used as the output for the tool.

out_sr

Optional integer. Additional parameters of the service.

The following additional parameters can be specified:

  • Spatial reference of the image_collection; The well-known ID of the spatial reference or a spatial reference dictionary object for the input geometries.

Optional dict. The context parameter is used to provide additional input parameters.

Syntax: {“image_collection_properties”: {“imageCollectionType”:”Satellite”},”byref”:True}

Use image_collection_properties key to set value for imageCollectionType.

Note

The “imageCollectionType” property is important for image collection that will later on be adjusted by orthomapping system service. Based on the image collection type, the orthomapping system service will choose different algorithm for adjustment. Therefore, if the image collection is created by reference, the requester should set this property based on the type of images in the image collection using the following keywords. If the imageCollectionType is not set, it defaults to “UAV/UAS”

If byref is set to ‘True’, the data will not be uploaded. If it is not set, the default is ‘False’

upload_properties key can be used to control specific upload parameters when trying to create hosted imagery layers in ArcGIS Online from local raster datasets.

Available options:

  • maxUploadConcurrency: Optional integer. Maximum number of parallel connections to use for large uploads (when individual file/blob size exceeds 64MB). This is the max_concurrency parameter of the BlobClient.upload_blob() method. (The default is 6)

  • maxWorkerThreads: Optional integer. Maximum number of threads to execute asynchronously when uploading multiple files. This is the max_workers parameter of the ThreadPoolExecutor() class. (The default is None)

  • displayProgress: Optional boolean. If set to True, a progress bar will be displayed for tracking the progress of the uploads to user’s rasterstore. (The default is False)

    Example:

    {“upload_properties”:{“maxUploadConcurrency”:8,
    “maxWorkerThreads”:20,
    “displayProgress”:True}
    }

The context parameter can also be used to specify whether to build overviews, build footprints, to specify pixel value that represents the NoData etc.

Example:

{“buildFootprints”:True,
“footprintsArguments”:{“method”:”RADIOMETRY”,”minValue”:1,”maxValue”:5,
“shrinkDistance”:50,”skipOverviews”:True,”updateBoundary”:True,
“maintainEdge”:False,”simplification”:None,”numVertices”:20,

“minRegionSize”:100},
“defineNodata”:True,
“noDataArguments”:{“noDataValues”:[500],”numberOfBand”:99,”compositeValue”:True},
“buildOverview”:True}

The context parameter can be used to add new fields when creating the image collection.

Example:

{“fields”: [{“name”: “cloud_cover”, “type”: “Long”},
{“name”: “cloud_shadow_count”, “type”: “Long”}]}

source_mosaic_dataset

Optional string. Path to the existing mosaic dataset to be published as a hosted dynamic imagery layer.

To publish an existing mosaic dataset, specify the path to the input data of the mosaic in the input_rasters parameter. The data will be uploaded to ArcGIS Online.

Note

The “imageCollectionType” property is important for image collection that will later on be adjusted by orthomapping system service. Based on the image collection type, the orthomapping system service will choose different algorithm for adjustment. Therefore, if the image collection is created by reference, the requester should set this property based on the type of images in the image collection using the following keywords. If the imageCollectionType is not set, it defaults to “UAV/UAS”

If byref is set to ‘True’, the data will not be uploaded. If it is not set, the default is ‘False’

Deprecated since version 1.8.1: Please use arcgis.raster.analytics.optimal_path_as_line instead.

../_images/ra_costpath_as_polyline.png

Calculates the least cost polyline path between sources and known destinations. Function available in ArcGIS Image Server 10.8 and higher.

Parameter

Description

input_destination_data

A raster or feature layer that identifies those cells from which the least-cost path is determined to the least costly source. If the input is a raster, the input consists of cells that have valid values (zero is a valid value), and the remaining cells must be assigned NoData.

input_cost_distance_raster

The cost distance raster to be used to determine the least-cost path from the sources to the destinations. The cost distance raster is usually created with the Cost Distance, Cost Allocation or Cost Back Link functions. The cost distance raster stores, for each cell, the minimum accumulative cost distance over a cost surface from each cell to a set of source cells.

input_cost_backlink_raster

The name of a cost back link raster used to determine the path to return to a source via the least-cost path. For each cell in the back link raster, a value identifies the neighbor that is the next cell on the least accumulative cost path from the cell to a single source cell or set of source cells.

path_type

A keyword defining the manner in which the values and zones on the input destination data will be interpreted in the cost path calculations. A string describing the path type, which can either be BEST_SINGLE, EACH_CELL, or EACH_ZONE.

  • BEST_SINGLE: For all cells on the input destination data, the least-cost path is derived from the cell with the minimum of the least-cost paths to source cells. This is the default.

  • EACH_CELL: For each cell with valid values on the input destination data, at least-cost path is determined and saved on the output raster. With this option, each cell of the input destination data is treated separately, and a least-cost path is determined for each from cell.

  • EACH_ZONE: For each zone on the input destination data, a least-cost path is determined and saved on the output raster. With this option, the least-cost path for each zone begins at the cell with the lowest cost distance weighting in the zone.

destination_field

Calculates the optimal path from a source to a destination as a feature. Function available in ArcGIS Image Server 10.8.1 and higher.

Parameter

Description

input_destination_data

Required ImageryLayer or FeatureLayer object. Portal Item can be passed. A dataset that identifies locations from which the optimal path is determined to the least costly source.

If the input is a raster, it must consist of cells that have valid values for the destinations, and the remaining cells must be assigned NoData. Zero is a valid value.

input_distance_accumulation_raster

Required ImageryLayer object. Portal Item can be passed. The distance accumulation raster is used to determine the optimal path from the sources to the destinations.

The distance accumulation raster is usually created with the distance_accumulation() or distance_allocation(). Each cell in the distance accumulation raster represents the minimum accumulative cost distance over a surface from each cell to a set of source cells.

input_back_direction_raster

Required ImageryLayer object. Portal Item can be passed. The back direction raster contains calculated directions in degrees. The direction identifies the next cell along the optimal path back to the least accumulative cost source while avoiding barriers.

The range of values is from 0 degrees to 360 degrees, with 0 reserved for the source cells. Due east (right) is 90, and the values increase clockwise (180 is south, 270 is west, and 360 is north)

destination_field

Optional string. The field to be used to obtain values for the destination locations.

path_type

Optional string. A keyword defining the manner in which the values and zones on the input destination data will be interpreted in the cost path calculations.

Calculates the optimal connectivity network between two or more input regions. Function available in ArcGIS Image Server 10.8.1 and higher.

Parameter

Description

input_region_data

Required ImageryLayer or FeatureLayer object. Portal Item can be passed. The input regions to be connected by the optimal network.

If the region input is a raster, the regions are defined by groups of contiguous (adjacent) cells of the same value. Each region must be uniquely numbered. The cells that are not part of any region must be NoData. The raster type must be integer, and the values can be either positive or negative.

If the region input is a feature dataset, it can be polygons, lines, or points. Polygon feature regions cannot be composed of multipart polygons.

input_barrier_data

Required ImageryLayer or FeatureLayer object. Portal Item can be passed. The dataset that defines the barriers.

The barriers can be defined by an integer or a floating-point raster, or by a feature layer.

input_cost_raster

Required ImageryLayer object. Portal Item can be passed. A raster defining the impedance or cost to move planimetrically through each cell.

The value at each cell location represents the cost-per-unit distance for moving through the cell. Each cell location value is multiplied by the cell resolution while also compensating for diagonal movement to obtain the total cost of passing through the cell.

The values of the cost raster can be integer or floating point, but they cannot be negative or zero (you cannot have a negative or zero cost).

distance_method

Optional String. Specifies whether to calculate the distance using a planar (flat earth) or a geodesic (ellipsoid) method.

  • PLANAR - The distance calculation will be performed on a projected flat plane using a 2D Cartesian coordinate system. This is the default.

  • GEODESIC - The distance calculation will be performed on the ellipsoid. Therefore, regardless of input or output projection, the results do not change.

connections_within_regions

Optional string. Default - GENERATE_CONNECTIONS

Possible options: GENERATE_CONNECTIONS, NO_CONNECTIONS

output_optimal_lines_name

Optional. If not provided, a feature layer is created by the method and used as the output. You can pass in an existing feature layer Item from your GIS to use that instead. Alternatively, you can pass in the name of the output feature layer that should be created by this method to be used as the output for the tool. A RuntimeError is raised if a service by that name already exists

This is the output polyline feature class of the optimal network of paths necessary to connect each of the input regions.

Each path (or line) is uniquely numbered, and additional fields in the attribute table store specific information about the path. Those fields are the following:

  • PATHID - Unique identifier for the path

  • PATHCOST - Total accumulative distance or cost for the path

  • REGION1 - The first region the path connects

  • REGION2 - The other region the path connects

This information provides insight into the paths within the network.

Since each path is represented by a unique line, there will be multiple lines in locations where paths travel the same route.

output_neighbor_connections_name

Optional. If not provided, a feature layer is created by the method and used as the output. You can pass in an existing feature layer Item from your GIS to use that instead. Alternatively, you can pass in the name of the output feature layer that should be created by this method to be used as the output for the tool. A RuntimeError is raised if a service by that name already exists

This is the output polyline feature class identifying all paths from each region to each of its closest or cost neighbors.

Each path (or line) is uniquely numbered, and additional fields in the attribute table store specific information about the path. Those fields are the following:

  • PATHID - Unique identifier for the path

  • PATHCOST - Total accumulative distance or cost for the path

  • REGION1 - The first region the path connects

  • REGION2 - The other region the path connects

This information provides insight into the paths within the network and is particularly useful when deciding which paths should be removed if necessary.

Since each path is represented by a unique line, there will be multiple lines in locations where paths travel the same route.

Parameter

Description

input_multidimensional_raster

Required ImageryLayer object. The input multidimensional raster. Portal Item can be passed.

processing_band

Optional string. The band to use for segmenting the pixel value trajectories over time. Choose the band that will best capture the changes in the feature you want to observe.

If no band value is specified and the input is multiband imagery, the first band in the multiband image will be used.

Example:

“Band_1”

snapping_date

Optional string. The date used to select a slice for each year in the input multidimensional dataset. The slice with the date closest to the snapping date will be selected. This parameter is required if the input dataset contains sub-yearly data.

The default is “06-30” (or June 30), approximately midway through a calendar year.

Example:

“06-30”

max_num_segments

Optional int. The maximum number of segments to be fitted to the time series for each pixel. The default is 5.

Example:

5

vertex_count_overshoot

Optional int. The number of additional vertices beyond max_num_segments + 1 that can be used to fit the model during the initial stage of identifying vertices. Later in the modeling process, the number of additional vertices will be reduced to max_num_segments + 1. The default is 2.

Example:

2

spike_threshold

Optional float. The threshold to use for dampening spikes or anomalies in the pixel value trajectory. The value must range between 0 and 1, where 1 means no dampening. The default is 0.9.

Example:

0.9

recovery_threshold

Optional float. The recovery threshold value, in years. If a segment has a recovery rate that is faster than 1/recovery threshold, the segment is discarded and not included in the time series model. The value must range between 0 and 1. The default is 0.25.

Example:

0.25

prevent_one_year_recovery

Optional boolean. Specifies whether segments that exhibit a one year recovery will be excluded.

  • True - Segments that exhibit a one year recovery will be excluded. This is the default.

  • False - Segments that exhibit a one year recovery will not be excluded.

Example:

True

increasing_recovery_trend

Optional boolean. Specifies whether the recovery has an increasing (positive) trend.

  • True - The recovery has an increasing trend. This is the default.

  • False - The recovery has a decreasing trend.

Example:

True

min_num_observations

Optional int. The minimum number of valid observations required to perform fitting. The number of years in the input multidimensional dataset must be equal to or greater than this value. The default is 6.

Example:

6

best_model_proportion

Optional float. The best model proportion value. During the model selection process, the tool will calculate the p-value for each model and select a model that has the most vertices while maintaining the smallest (most significant) p-value based on this proportion value. A value of 1 means the model has the lowest p-value but may not have a high number of vertices. The default is 1.25.

Example:

1.25

pvalue_threshold

Optional float. The p-value threshold for a model to be selected. After the vertices are detected in the initial stage of the model fitting, the tool will fit each segment and calculate the p-value to determine the significance of the model. On the next iteration, the model will decrease the number of segments by one and recalculate the p-value. This will continue and, if the p-value is smaller than the value specified in this parameter, the model will be selected and the tool will stop searching for a better model. If no such model is selected, the tool will select a model with a p-value smaller than the lowest p-value × best model proportion value. The default is 0.01.

Example:

0.01

output_other_bands

Optional boolean. Specifies whether other bands will be included in the segmentation process.

  • True - Other bands will be included. The segmentation and vertices information from the initial segmentation band specified in the processing_band parameter will also be fitted to the remaining bands in the multiband images. The model results will include the segmentation band first, then the remaining bands.

  • False - Other bands will not be included. This is the default.

Example:

2

Note

Function available in ArcGIS Image Server 11.1 and higher.

Argument

Description

input_multidimensional_raster

Required ImageryLayer object. The input multidimensional raster.

mode

Required String. Specifies the method that will be used to perform principal component analysis.

  • DIMENSION_REDUCTION : The input time series data will be treated as a set of images. Principal components that extract prevalent patterns over time will be computed. This is the default.

  • SPATIAL_REDUCTION : The input time series data will be treated as a set of pixels. Principal components that extract prevalent patterns and locations over time will be computed as a set of one-dimensional arrays stored in a table.

dimension

Required String. The dimension name used to process the principal components.

Optional String. If not provided, a service is created by the method and used as the output.
When the mode parameter is specified as DIMENSION_REDUCTION, the output will be a multiband raster with the components as bands. The first band is the first principal component with the largest eigenvalue, the second band has the principal component with the second largest eigenvalue, and so on.
When the mode parameter is specified as SPATIAL_REDUCTION, the output is a table
containing a set of time series data representing the principal components.
You can pass in an existing Item from your GIS to use that instead.
Alternatively, you can pass in the name of the output that should be created by this method to be used as the output for the tool.
A RuntimeError is raised if a service by that name already exists.

output_loadings_name

Optional String. If not provided, a service is created by the method and used as the output.
When the mode parameter is specified as DIMENSION_REDUCTION, the output will be a table containing the weights that each input raster contributed to the principal components. These weights define the correlations of the input data and the output principal components.
When the mode parameter is specified as SPATIAL_REDUCTION, the output is a raster where pixel values are the weights contributing to the principal components. Pixels with larger values are more corelated to the principal components. This output may have a larger cell size than the input raster because a random reprojection is applied to reduce the computation complexity.
You can pass in an existing Item from your GIS to use that instead.
Alternatively, you can pass in the name of the output that should be created by this method to be used as the output for the tool.
A RuntimeError is raised if a service by that name already exists.

output_eigen_values_table_name

Optional String. The name for the output eigen values table.

You can pass in an existing Item from your GIS to use that instead.

Alternatively, you can pass in the name of the output that should be created by this method to be used as the output for the tool. A RuntimeError is raised if a service by that name already exists.

variable

number_of_principal_components

Optional String. The number of principal components to compute, usually fewer than the number of input rasters. This parameter also takes the form of percentage (%). For example, 90% means the number of components that can explain 90% of variance in the data will be computed. The default is “95%”.
